FAQs about Catering, Kitchen & Kitchenette facilities:

Kitchen Facilities in the Apartment (TRL Building):
All AMSI attendees will have access to a kitchen, including a fridge, kettle, toaster, stove/oven, sink, dishwasher, and microwave, as well as plates, cutting boards, utensils, and pans. However, please note that you will need to purchase your own food. Additionally, over 60 other attendees will also have access to these facilities. St Andrew’s can’t guarantee availability early in the morning, as everyone will likely be having breakfast around the same time before the conference.

Utensils & Cups/Plates:
It’s a good idea to bring your own cutlery, cups, and plates, just in case, as the College does not have enough for 60 people.

Kitchenette Area (Link Foyer, TRL Building):
St Andrew’s also has a small kitchenette area on the ground floor with a toaster, kettle, microwave, and fridge as an alternative option to use.
